Right-wing politics

Like most Americans, I've enjoyed watching the Super Bowl. But the halftime shows began pushing moral boundaries and have become more and more sexualized. This year, they're having Bad Bunny perform. The @NFL leadership is pushing this sexualized agenda. Thank you, @TPUSA and Franklin Graham (@Franklin_Graham) February 5, 2026

Ben Shapiro is a conservative provocateur. Ever since he was a teen-ager at U.C.L.A. writing op-eds for the Daily Bruin, he has shown a penchant for the rhetorical grenade. Women who have abortions are "baby killers." Western civilization is "superior" to other civilizations. "Israelis like to build," he tweeted in 2010. "Arabs like to bomb crap and live in open sewage. This is not a difficult issue. #settlementsrock." Shapiro is now forty-two, and his rhetoric has mellowed only somewhat.

The readings in my last series led me to see the genuine hatred conservatives have for what they call variously liberal hegemony, liberal ideology, left-wing ideology, and other names. David Brooks, newly ensconced at Yale and The Atlantic, is just sure it was liberals who caused Trump's wins, with their snotty "knowledge", and "refined tastes". I mocked this nonsense, but apparently Brooks was serious about the super bad feelings his people have about such things.

"Such meetings are not only directed externally at the public, but also internally within the party," Hillje told DW. "Therefore, they are a maneuver in a power struggle within the party which is taking place primarily between the eastern German state branches and the federal party leadership." While AfD leadership at the federal level is oriented more toward moderation, the AfD's regional associations in eastern Germany lean toward radicalism.

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard has just released HUNDREDS OF BOMBSHELL RUSSIAGATE DOCUMENTS proving that Barack Obama personally ordered CIA agents to manufacture false intelligence on President Trump and was actively "working with the enemy" to undermine and erode Americans' confidence in our democracy and President Trump's LANDSLIDE 2016 VICTORY. This was a coup attempt by Barack Hussain Obama and his cronies... As Jesse Watters said "Whatever happens to these guys is not revenge... it's accountability. And it's time for people to pay the price." ARREST OBAMA NOW!

Raichik's strategy seems to be emboldened by the series of mass firings that occurred after Charlie Kirk's assassination,

One of the biggest additions to the game in its 15-year history, the "Bigger and Boulder" update's overwhelming list of changes, fixes, and additions include over 650 new items, as well as new bosses, game mechanics, and much more. The update includes a plethora of changes to the game's character creation menu, which has scrapped gender in exchange for additional options such as changing a character's body type and voice.

More than two decades ago, I semi-seriously proposed calling this website The American Conservative Online. My reasoning was twofold: 1) At that time, we ink-stained wretches were still somewhat in denial about this whole internet thing, so we liked to append "online" to our website titles. 2) The acronym would have been "TACO." The hilarity of publishing broadsides against George W. Bush's proposed immigration amnesties on something called TACO would have been hard to deny, but cooler heads prevailed.

On January 15, the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) announced $75.1 million for humanities projects across the country. Presented as part of President Donald Trump's January 25, 2025 executive order, "Celebrating America's Birthday," the move is the latest example of how the Trump administration is increasingly using federal funding as a vehicle to achieve its broader goals of reshaping higher education.

The Federal Reserve declined to cut the U.S. interest rate at the Wednesday meeting of its board of governors, keeping the benchmark at 3.5-3.75 percent. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell noted that the strong economy and stable levels of unemployment made further rate cuts unnecessary in the view of the board. Inflation also remains somewhat elevated, a circumstance lower interest rates could aggravate.

Elie, I take your point that you think it's both sides, but let me just say the data, respectfully, disagrees with you. According to government and independent analysis, since 2001, 85% of political deaths have been from right-wing extremists. There was a study posted on the DOJ about right-wing extremism being one of the biggest issues in America. Of course, it quietly disappeared when Donald Trump came into office, submitted Cross.

Within minutes of Alex Pretti being shot and killed by a federal immigration officer in Minneapolis on Saturday, the Trump administration, backed by right-wing influencers, launched a smear campaign against the victim, labeling him a "terrorist" and a "lunatic." Pretti, 37, was killed during a confrontation with multiple federal immigration agents. Pretti was an American citizen and a registered nurse who worked in the Department of Veterans Affairs, according to a colleague who spoke to the Guardian.

Candace Owens/YouTube On Tuesday, Candace Owens marveled at the fact that the ice on her trees was not melting with the temperature at 30 degrees Fahrenheit. Back online after internet blackout. I grew up in Connecticut and have truly never seen an ice like this ever. The temperature is 30 degrees but the ice on our trees tops is not melting at all, Owens posted on X. Never seen anything like this. Anybody else?

Thousands of people have marched through an East Sussex market town to protest against UK government plans to house asylum seekers on a former military site. Crowds of men, women and children walked to Crowborough from the base, where the Home Office plans to house up to 500 male asylum seekers as part of plans to end the use of hotels for the same purpose.

Videos of Amelia typically feature her walking through London, or the House of Commons, declaring her love for England and warning of the dangers of militant Muslims or third-world migrants. In one clip she is harangued by bearded man in Islamic attire for eating a pork sausage. The message is one well rehearsed on far-right social media, but it is the AI invention of Amelia that has made her endlessly adaptable,

The right-wing dating site Whitedate.net, dubbed 'Nazi Tinder', has dozens of members from across Ireland. Only one of those on the site mention love as a motivation, but many mentioned the need to "breed" for the "white race". The site's thousands of profiles were leaked online after a hack, Whitedate's owner says, "there will be repercussions". Some of its 48 users on the island of Ireland, including a 56-year-old woman from Moy and multiple men from Belfast, Derry, and Bangor.

"Some of you may remember that in my remarks last year, that one of the things I most wanted in the United States of America was more families and more babies," he began his speech. Vance, indeed, during his first speech as Vice President in January 2025, told the March for Life crowd that he, specifically, wanted more beautiful young Americans to procreate. Every time I'm forced to remember this, I get an overwhelming urge to lobotomize myself.

In any liberal morality play, Democrats always get to be the shivering, oppressed black people, while Republicans have to play the part of Bull Connor, Birmingham, AL's racist commissioner of public safety. Except the facts are exactly the opposite. I'm sure you're bored of hearing this, but Connor was a Democrat, as were all the politicians promising "massive resistance" to racial integration. Republicans were the ones forcing Democrats to abide by federal law, along with a few John Fetterman- style Democrats.
